Ingredients
-
¼ cup salt
-
8 cups water
-
12 duck breast halves
-
12 slices bacon
-
1 (16 ounce) bottle Italian-style salad dressing
-
toothpicks
Directions
-
Mix together salt and water. Set aside 2/3 of the mixture, and pour the rest into a glass baking dish. Soak the duck in the salt water overnight to remove the gamey. Change the salt water twice, or until mostly clear.
-
The next morning, discard the salt water, and pour salad dressing over the duck breasts, and marinate for at least 8 hours.
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Wrap each breast half in one strip of bacon, and secure with a toothpick. Place the breasts in a 9x13 inch baking dish.
-
Bake for about 1 hour, or until bacon is crisp, and duck is cooked through.
On the grill
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill duck breasts for about 30 minutes, turning once.
